Since he was announced as the 2019 Oscar ceremony host yesterday, some of the offensive things Kevin Hart has said in the past have been circulating on social media.

Considering how many of the Oscars' biggest fans are women and gay men it's quite something for the Academy to hire a guy who beat one wife, cheated on another when she was eight months pregnant and said one of his biggest fears is his son growing up and being gay.

Kevin Hart wrote in his memoir about getting physical with his ex-wife and how he ended up spending a night in jail after one of their fights.

A clip from an old standup special where he talked about how much he feared his son being gay and how he knocked over his young son and another boy because they were "having a gay moment" is being brought up. ( More under the cut...Collapse )SOURCE 12345

holy shit... i knew about that routine about his son, which is disgusting enough, but omg @ some of those tweets... i really hope this picks up steam and he is fired. also i feel terrible for his children.

when Logic put out the anti-suicide video w the gay storyline, I was so jaded that I ran a search on his old tweets to find evidence of using the word f**. dude had been using the account actively since 2009...

result: 0 instances. this should not be a miracle; it should be the default return for a query like that!

either don't tweet garbage in the first place, or at least make it so that people like me don't find it when we do cursory searches! basics.
